No one can deny that Michael Phelps dedication and hard work has absolutely paid off in the last two Olympics. Michael has established himself as the Olympics greatest athlete of all time winning 22 metals, 18 of those gold! That is quite an accomplishment to top in one's brief existence here in time but the question at hand here is, do gold metals and men's great achievements have any ETERNAL merit and weight to them (Psalm 39:5, 1 Peter 1:7, 18-19, 1 John 2:16-17)? No offence to Michael on this thought or any others but while everyone throughout the world is paying attention, why not take the time and make people consider and think it through; for this little vapor called time is less than a drop of water in the ETERNAL bucket of FOREVER (Rom. 10:2-4, John 3:36, 1 John 16-17). Ty Cobb, Cy Young, Jim Thorpe, Ted Williams, Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, Lou Gehrig, Roberto Clemente, Jesse Owens etc, etc, have had their brief moment in the sun, greatly achieved and now are dead and gone FOREVER. If these could speak now from their ETERNAL habitation, what would their message be in light of all of their great achievements and fame?.

That is quite an accomplishment to top in one's brief existence here in time but the question at hand here is, do gold metals and man's great achievements have any ETERNAL weight to them.

The Old Testament Book of Ecclesiastes is the tragic biography of Adam’s fallen race (i.e., humanity) told by the wisest of all men, King Solomon. King Solomon possessed it all: wisdom, brilliance, discernment, authority, prestige, riches/ wealth, property/ possessions, power, fame, women and glory. Amazingly, as he was reflecting on his life in his last days, he made this very sobering and tragic statement: “Vanity of vanities…all is vanity”(Eccl. 1:1-15, 12:7-8).

In possessing all of this stature and achievement, it neversatisfied the ETERNAL void of his heart. All of it did not - and could not - yield peace and contentment. In the end, all of Solomon's great achievements and pomp could never deliver him in the hour of his death. To Solomon, all indeed was truly dust in the wind...

Dust in the Wind, the title of a song released by the group Kansas in the late 1970’s, is a melancholy piece regarding the terrible uncertainties and brevity of earthly existence. There is no certainty, no hope, no expectation, no solution and no deliverance. The song is painted with pessimistic colors and presents a bleak and tragic picture with absolute abandonment and no salvation to be found. All we are is dust in the wind….

All we are is dust in the wind.

What the majority of humanity (and the song) greatly misses is that WITHOUTAlmighty God, our Creator and Sustainer and His righteousness, all is indeed an absolute tragedy, vanity and dust in the wind (Psalm 39:5). My friend, that was NEVER Almighty God’s plan and purpose for His creation (Rom. 5:12-21). It is Almighty God’s sincerest desire that all would come to the saving knowledge of His Son Jesus Christ and have ETERNAL Life. The Bible states:

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved" (John 3:16-17)

"Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die…?" (Ezekiel 33:11)

"For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost" (Matt 18:11)

"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light" (Matt 11:28-30)

Jesus said, "The thief (Satan) cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly" (John 10:10)

Your existence here in time does not have to end in vanity. Almighty God has a great future plan and purpose for your life.

But as it is written, "Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him" (1 Cor. 2:9)

"Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live" (John 11:25)

"And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever" (Rev. 22:5)

.

Without Almighty God’s remedy for our sinful condition which is found only in the Person of His Son Jesus Christ, indeed all is truly vanity and dust in the wind..

"For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? " (Matt 16:26)

"Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah" (Psalm 39:5).

"And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire" (Rev 20:11-15).

In the end, Solomon fully comprehended that Almighty God was absolutely essential for the existence of man. To know Him is life ETERNAL with great expectation and purpose!

"Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for thisis the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil" (Eccl. 12:13,14)

Do you know the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior? To know Him is to have ETERNAL Life and possess ETERNAL Hope. May it be your sincere desire to know the One that made it all possible for you to have all of God’s highest and best for your life - both here in time and also for ETERNITY.

So when countless thousands of Americans rally behind Chick -fil -A for pro family and Christian biblical values in light of the reprobates on the Lefts hate filled comments, it should be absolutely no surprise that this event is blacked out, buried and ignored.

Satan and the Left cannot entertain REALITY or TRUTH for one moment and cannot allow their followers to be exposed to reality (2 Cor. 4:3-4). It is all part of the demonic agenda as Lucifer seeks to finish his evil demise of America, her remnant's world wide Gospel outreach and her Judeo/Christian heritage. The demonic complex is zealously at work and all things are headed to Lucifer's lawless, tyrannical and grand design... 666(2 Thess. 2:3-12, Rev. 13). I know that this evaluation might seem to be absolutely absurd and crazy to many but it is the REALITY at hand whether one receives it or not (2 Cor. 4:3-4, Eph. 2:1-2, 6:12).

I know that this evaluation might seem to be absolutely absurd and crazy to many but it is the REALITY at hand whether one receives it or not.

Today Lucifer’s American Leftist Media is ram-rodding, bulldozing, redefining and cultivating the U.S. ground for the future grand reception of his ultimate agenda presided over by his Ultimate Minion, the Anti-Christ, who will head a godless and secular world government in the near future. At that time he will totally possess ALL the World’s remaining media and will vigorously push his global godless agenda to all the world's doom (Isa. 24: 4-6, Dan. 2:34-35,44-45, Matt 24:22, Rev. 14:10-11, 19: 11-21)./

Lucifer's Minions abound everywhere today in the American Mainstream Media. They unknowingly do his will. He knows how to maneuver and appeal to our carnal (fleshly) fallen nature which is governed by the five physical senses (sight, smell, taste, touch and hearing).

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

The secular liberal mindset is the most open to Satan's suggestions for a godless trend-setting agenda. They do his will quite readily because they are the most susceptible to it. Just by watching their actions you can see their puppet master at work.

Jesus stated to the scoffers in his day: "Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it" (John 8:44-45).

The Bible also states: "Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air (Lucifer), the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience" (Ephesians 2:2).

The American Leftist Media's Ideology.

The ideology and philosophy of the American Leftist Media is based in the basest (lowest) form of thought and rationale. They use partial truths and follow their unbridled passions (lusts) and emotions (Psalm 14:1,3, Roms 1:18-32, Phil. 3:19, 2 Peter 2:12, Jude 1:10). They are narcissistic in their heart and subjective to the core. Their moral compass is all out-of-whack because of their complete and total rejection of absolutes (i.e., right and wrong). Since they also reject absolutes they hold themselves to no standard. They have no regard at all for morality, laws (natural/spiritual), personal accountability and responsibility (Gal. 5:19-12; 2 Peter 2:10, 18-19, Jude 10-13). In every way they are Machiavellian (i.e., believing that the end justifies the means), and just like their father the Devil (John 8:44). Because of their base condition, those on the Left are the most susceptible to Lucifer’s suggestions and will. So is it any wonder why that this pro family, pro Christianity message that Americans sent out Wednesday by eating and supporting Chick-fil- A had to be blocked out?. had to be

They (the Left) are narcissistic in their heart and subjective to the core. Their moral compass is all out-of-whack because of their complete and total rejection of natural law and absolutes.

This godless, base behavior is encouraged by the Father of Lies – Lucifer, or the Devil (John 8:44). His goal is to make humanity as base as possible in their thinking, and as callous (hardened) in their morality, so to despise what is right and wrong. His goal is to brainwash and dupe the masses into doing his bidding.

What is Truth?

It is imperative today that we see things from God’s point of view – from an "outside of the box" objective analysis - and with a biblical perspective. Only Almighty God and His Word can expose the current trends and ever moving agenda of Lucifer. Only Almighty God can reveal to fallen humanity the realities at hand (Matt. 16:17, John 3:3-12, 14:26, 16:13, Col. 2:15)..

It is imperative today that we see things from God’s point of view – from an "outside of the box" objective analysis.

My friend, are the many different talking heads of today's media confusing you? There is One that you can trust for the Truth and Reality coverage for your existence in time and eternity future. He alone is Trustworthy. He alone is True. He alone is Faithful and Righteous (Rev. 1:5, 19:11).

May the hour in which we live in today drive you to the Savior of all mankind, the Lord Jesus Christ. May you place your trust and hope in Him alone. True hope and security are only found in Him. He will strengthen your heart and give you a sure foundation to stand on (Matt 7:24-27). You will never be the same… NEVER!

At the end of the 1000-year reign of Christ, all Haters of Reality will be confronted with their most feared phobia. They will come face to face with the FINAL REALITY of time and ETERNITY, and be ushered into the very presence of Almighty God - the Righteous Judge - at the Great White Throne Judgment (Rev. 20:11-15). Here these sin-ridden, rebellious masses of countless multitudes from the beginning of time to the end of the millennial reign of Christ will give a "final, full account" to Almighty God. We do not read in Revelation 20:11-15 that even ONE person will open their month in protest. The delusional and darkened imaginations of fallen man will be obliterated by the ETERNAL LIGHT of REALITY. Upon the divine and righteous judgment from Almighty God, the lost "Haters of Reality" are cast into Almighty God’s ETERNAL prison called "the Lake of Fire.” Here in their unregenerate state they will FOREVER have to give account for each and every sin - from the smallest transgression to the vilest of thoughts, words and acts. Hear what Almighty God’s Word says concerning these wretches and their wretched estate:

"And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found NO PLACE FOR THEM (Rev. 20:11). He that is unjust (unrighteous, broken), let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous(cf. Rom. 10:4), let him be righteous still: and he that is holy (set apart by Almighty God), let him be holy still (Rev. 22:11)."

The souls of unregenerate men and women will FOREVER remain in their misery and terrible condition subject to the RIGHTEOUS RULE of Hell's PERFECT and PURE condition (Rev. 22:11). Any thought that pops up in their heart and mind that transgresses Almighty God's ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS and JUST absolutes will be consumed immediately to keep the ETERNAL realm of God pure and clean. They will be left with their godless memories and reminders of their rejection of Almighty God’s pardon to reap the devastating, ETERNAL consequences (cf. Luke 16:23-25). The tragic end result for these individuals is that they will have to personally and perpetually FOREVER answer to Almighty God for each infraction and every violation of Almighty God’s Natural Laws of time and ETERNAL Spiritual Laws of FOREVER.

At the end of time these Haters of Reality will abide forevermore in the presence of ABSOLUTE REALITY in torment and anguish.

The most tragic thing imaginable for a human being is to be thus left to their own darkened and delusional thought process. From Lucifer to his fallen angels (demons), from Cain to Nimrod, from Babel’s scattered founders of the nations to the Anti-Christ, from Gog and Magog in the middle of the Great Tribulation to the Great Rebellion at the end of the Millennium - at the end of time these Haters of Reality will abide FOREVERMORE in the presence of ABSOLUTE REALITY in torment and anguish (Jer. 4:4, Matt. 13:42, 50, Mark 9:48).

Almighty God calls out to all today to be saved (i.e., delivered) from the “wrath to come” (John 3:17; 12:47). God calls us to abandon our delusional philosophies and ideologies and follow after His ETERNAL absolutes of reality and truth. The Lord Jesus said, "I am the way, the TRUTH (reality), and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but (except) by me" (John 14:6). "God is a Spirit: and they that worship him MUST worship him in SPIRIT and in TRUTH" (John 4:24). "They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through thy TRUTH: thy word is TRUTH" (John 17:16-17).

Because of His great love for us, Almighty God sent His Son Jesus Christ to earth to ETERNALLY save us (John 3:16-17), and to deliver us from the bondage of our trespasses and fallen nature (Gal. 1:4; Eph. 2:1-7). In reading this very sobering post may you consider very seriously the VERY REAL realities of time and ETERNITY, and understand how desperately you need the person of God’s Son, Jesus Christ, as your Personal Savior. May it be so for you to be found a Lover - and not a Hater - of Reality. Place your trust in Christ TODAY! You will NEVER be the same!

Global Warming the Bible Has The Answer!

And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men. (Mark 1:17)

The Wisdom of God/The Foolishness of Man

For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Were is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom. But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence. But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.1 Corinthians 1:18-31
